Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Combination oral contraceptive containing norethindrone acetate and ethinyl estradiol. Norethindrone acetate is a progestin that suppresses gonadotropin release, inhibiting ovulation; ethinyl estradiol is an estrogen that provides feedback inhibition of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), preventing follicular development and ovulation. Additionally, it causes changes in cervical mucus (increased viscosity) and endometrium (reduced receptivity).
Combination of estrogen (ethinyl estradiol) and progestin (desogestrel) that inhibits gonadotropin release, suppressing ovulation, increasing cervical mucus viscosity, and altering endometrial morphology.

Norethindrone: 5-14 hours (terminal); Ethinyl estradiol: 10-20 hours (terminal). Steady-state achieved within 5-7 days; contraceptive efficacy maintained with daily dosing.
Ethinylestradiol: terminal half-life 13-17 hours (mean 15 h). Desogestrel active metabolite 3-keto-desogestrel: terminal half-life 23-28 hours (mean 25 h). Clinical: steady-state achieved by cycle day 7-10; missed pill instructions based on half-life.
Renal: ~50-60% as metabolites, <10% unchanged; Fecal: ~40-50% via bile; Ethinyl estradiol undergoes enterohepatic recirculation.
Renal: ~55-60% as ethinylestradiol glucuronide and sulfate conjugates; ~40% as desogestrel metabolites (largely as 3-keto-desogestrel glucuronide). Fecal: ~30-35% of desogestrel metabolites; <5% for ethinylestradiol. Biliary: minor for both.
